You Gotta Be Kidding Me!

*You Gotta Be Kidding Me!* is the newly rebranded podcast from longtime friends *Tony Perkins* and *Gary Stein* —and it’s exactly what you think it is: smart, funny, and just unfiltered enough.Tony, a Washington, DC television anchor and former Good Morning America personality, teams up with his longtime GMA producer, cohort, and partner-in-crime Gary Stein for a weekly conversation that feels like you’ve pulled up a chair with two friends who’ve seen everything and aren’t afraid to react to it.Each episode delivers sharp observations, unexpected laughs, real-life stories, and conversations that regularly land somewhere between “that’s hilarious” and “you’ve gotta be kidding me.” Interviews pop up, hot takes are guaranteed, and the chemistry is the whole point.Same voices. Same friendship. A brand-new name—and even more reasons to laugh, shake your head, and keep listening.

    Episode 8 : Bumping into Roker

    Gary is self-conscious about his looks... can the 3M Company help? Tony gets a surprise that recalls a literal piece of broadcast history... it's an amazing tale. Plus: Pussycat Dolls, memories, extra-strength things, and death. FUN!

    Episode 7: Provacateur

    It's a very special episode of YGBKM! Mr. Stein is LIVE from Boss Angeles! He loves it! Mr. Perkins, amazingly, skipped the White House Correspondents Dinner this year... so thank goodness, he missed the shooting. He does, however, have some thoughts about the event and what went down. We also take a look back at the first iteration of this podcast... TEN YEARS AGO! It's great fun and Gary teaches Tony a lesson. So, turn it up and polish your gong.

    Episode 6 : Dorky... Not Nudgey

    Gary the Grown-Up: "He's a P.I.". Gary the Three Year Old: "He's at the Dentist". Oh Dear. Tony opines on some new TV we might not need... and the glory days of the 8-Track tape (we still prefer LPs). Plus, some delicious Tom Cruise gossip. Mimes love this show!

    Episode 5: Million Dollar Duck

    In this episode, we finally put a button on "The Godfather 3" discussion. We persistently and aggressively retire a word from our parlance. Popular podcast guest star Tony does a fascinating music segment... and Gary brings a tune, too. Plus, if you get lost while watching/listening... just go to your Britannica.

    Episode 4 : I Mainly Did That to You

    Gary is… better; but does his skin hurt? Tony, please stop biting yourself. Wanna know about potatoes? We got ya. We even tell the potato joke (!). Two listeners take us to task about some of our opinions… and they bring up some valid points (special thanks to our friend Donna Marshall!). Plus, our thoughts on Artemis II. This one’s a BIG one.

    Episode 3 : That Will Cost You Extra

    We're back with a new theme! Again! Tune in for a remarkable story about the way things worked at GMA on the 6th floor. Who was your first celebrity crush? Our answers may surprise you. We also discuss the worst movie sequels. Plus, snooze buttons and noses!

    Episode 2 : To Annoy People for Eternity

    Tony and Gary are great friends... so why does Mrs. Perkins want them to fight? We take a moment to remember Chuck Norris, Gary's nose, shut-ins, and Tony's love of sugar. Robb and Josh stop by (but only briefly... don't worry) and T and G discus supermarket stressors... you see what I'm sayin'?

    Episode 1 : Therefore, the B

    Guess what? We're back! We are excited to return and to talk about some of the things we missed in the last few years. There is also discussion about our new production staff and what made the show return. We also dissect Chalamet (not literally) and we do our own 'In Memoriam" segment. Plus, who the heck is Ed Sullivan?

    Are We Back?

    Gary has been waiting

    Episode #113 - Inflatable You

    Tony and Gary pull back the curtain on what it takes to put on a live show like the ones they've done at The DC Improv; it's funny, but it ain't pretty!
